Silphium perfoliatum L. (cup plant, silphie) and S. integrifolium Michx. (rosinweed, silflower) are in the same subfamily tribe as sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.). has been grown many countries a forage or bioenergy crop with quality approaching that of alfalfa Medicago sativa L.) biomass yield close to maize Zea mays some environments. large seeds taste oil similar traditional oilseed sunflower. species all long‐lived, diploid perennials. Crops from this genus could improve stability,...
Silflower (Silphium integrifolium Michx.) is in the early stages of domestication as a perennial version oilseed sunflower, its close relative. Grain crops with deep root systems will provide farmers new alternatives for managing soil moisture and limiting or remediating erosion, fertilizer leaching, loss biota. Several cycles selection increased seed production potential following initial germplasm evaluation 2002 have provided opportunities to document botany ecology this relatively...
The perennial sunflower Silphium integrifolium Michx. (Asteraceae), also known as silflower, is a prospective dual-purpose forage plus grain crop. Pre-flowering biomass harvest for animal feed and the subsequent delay in plant growth anthesis has potential to benefit seed yield and/or offset loss from native pests, such North American Eucosma giganteana (Lepidopera: Tortricidae). aim of this study was develop cropping technology silflower (A) balance production (B) minimize loss. Silflower...
Abstract Improvements in seed yield during domestication and breeding are frequently achieved moving plants from the conservative syndrome of plant economic spectrum towards more acquisitive side, changing how acquire, allocate, use store C nutrients relation to their wild relatives. The aims were evaluate if changed N allocation, internal recycling (N resorption efficiency proficiency, storage) N‐use‐efficiency, perennial new crop Silphium integrifolium . We compared a field experiment...
Abstract Domestication of desert‐adapted perennials has been proposed as an alternative to increase cropping intensity in low input environments. However, selection for high yield perennial crops provokes indirect changes plant resource use. These might alter how nitrogen is acquired, allocated, used and stored, thus affecting longevity stability. Using the forb Physaria a model, we compared pattern N allocation, use conservation high‐yield accessions (Y), stable (S), with their wild...
Prosopis denudans, an extreme xerophyte shrub, is consumed by ungulates and threatened firewood gathering, because it one of the preferred species used Mapuche indigenous people Patagonia. In a scenario uncontrolled use vegetation, very difficult to develop conservation plan that jointly protects natural resources its users. We performed field experiment assess impact defoliation on growth, reproduction stores wild population P. denudans. imposed four levels (removal 100, 66, 33 0% leaves)...
